Identifying Logical Volume of EVA Storage System (Using
Characteristic 2)
When the connected external storage system is an EVA storage system, LUNs
are displayed as Characteristic 1 in the Universal Volume Manager windows.
If you search for the logical volumes specifying the WWN indicating the EVA
Port A in the configuration such as
Figure A-1, the logical volumes named LUN
1 and LUN 2 are found for each of HostGroup-1 and HostGroup-2. In this case,
two different logical volumes that have the same name such as LUN 1 and LUN
2 are found as the logical volumes that can be connected from EVA Port A, but
you cannot tell which LUN 1 and LUN 2 belong to HostGroup-1 or HostGroup-2
only by Characteristic 1.
In the configuration such as
Figure A-1, you can identify the logical volumes
referring to Characteristic 2 in the Universal Volume Manager windows. The
first 32 characters of Characteristic 2 indicate the World Wide LUN Name
that can be found on the EVA storage system side. You can identify the logical
volume of the EVA storage system by this World Wide LUN Name.
